Revolutionary Guards: poll winners will shield Iran independence
Iran's hardline Revolutionary Guards on Sunday said the winners of Friday's elections would protect the Islamic Republic against foreign enemies, and the high turnout was evidence of broad popular support of the ruling system.
"There is no doubt that the election winners will do their best to protect Iran's dignity, power and independence; resolve the main issues for society and the people; and defeat the global arrogance (United States) by their awareness and wisdom," the Guards said in a statement carried on the Tasnim news agency.
